    areaDetector: EPICS software for area detectors</h1>
  <p>
    Module Owner: Mark Rivers: University of Chicago</p>
  <p>
    This page is the home of <b>areaDetector</b>, an application for controlling area
    (2-D) detectors, including CCDs, pixel array detectors, and online imaging plates.
  </p>
  <p>
    <b>NOTE:</b> This module replaces the <a href="http://cars.uchicago.edu/software/epics/ccd.html">
      ccd</a> and <a href="http://cars.uchicago.edu/software/epics/epilatusROI.html">pilatusROI</a>
    modules. These older modules will no longer be supported, and users are encouraged
    to convert to this new areaDetector software.</p>
  <p>
    Devices supported in <b>areaDetector</b> include:</p>
  <p>
    From <a href="http://www.adsc-xray.com/">ADSC</a>

  <h2>
    areaDetector camera drivers supplied by 3rd parties</h2>
  <p>
    Some areaDetector support have been developed by others. These are not distributed
    with the areaDetector releases (source or binary) and are not directly supported
    by the areaDetector working group, but may be useful for users:</p>

    Prior to release R2-0 the areaDetector module is in the <a href="https://subversion.xray.aps.anl.gov/synApps/areaDetector">
      synApps Subversion repository at the APS</a>. The "trunk" directory contains the
    most recent unreleased code, while the "tags" directory contains the released versions.
  </p>
  <p>
    For releases prior to R2-0 the software can be downloaded from the links in the
    table below. The software is available both in source code form, and in pre-built
    form so that it can be used without an EPICS build system. There are separate pre-built
    binary packages for linux-x86, linux-x86_64, win32-x86, windows-x64, and cygwin-x86.</p>
